The Best Tinted Lip Balms for Your Pout

We love a matte liquid lip as much as the next person, but it’s no secret the formulas aren’t friendly when it comes to maintaining hydration. And with National Kissing Day right around the corner (a.k.a. tomorrow), we refuse to sacrifice a supple pout for added color. Easy solution: Don’t. Instead, grab for a tinted lip balm and let the kisses fly.

We’ve gathered the best tinted lip balms out there; from organic to drugstore to high end. So keep on scrolling to see which balm suits your fancy—not only for the holiday, but for any time you’re craving moisture and color.
